Thanks. But it wasn't cheap and I originally decided to pass on it. In fact I was already out the door and half way to my car when I had a change of heart. I collect Milwaukee Braves cards and I knew I'd never seen another one, and probably wouldn't ever see one again, so I decided to go for it. Even though my box is empty, I'm glad my wife decided to give me the go-ahead especially after seeing how much the Koufax went for.

Finally decided to go after the '52 set. Here's my 1st pickup for the set (and a possible resubmit for a bump?). Three guesses where I bought it!

Nice pick up Brandon!

I picked up this '52 Jackie this week to complete my '52-56 Jackie run. The creases are not as bad in person as the scans suggest, but it's still no where near the condition of your Mays. I can certainly understand why you'd want to pursue this set. Good luck!



Regards,

Richard.

Items like that are so rare that if you can afford it you should never sweat it; there is no such thing as 'overpaying' on an item that is going to be a cornerstone of your collection.

Rob, like David, I was thinking of pulling the trigger on that one. Pat, that's an incredible Robby!

Anyways, I just got this in today.

Don't laugh now, but I'm gonna undershine all the other Robby's here. This one's definitely destined for an upgrade, but it'll be well loved amongst my other beaters for now. It honestly makes me wish I would've pulled the trigger on the other one even more. But I can't complain about the price either. Pat nice pickup BTW, that is one beautiful Robby.
